Chapter 85 Exchanging Gifts

After the storm had passed, Yang Letian lay lazily on the bed, preparing to take a cigarette from his pocket. But just as he lit it, Wei Luman snatched it away and threw it on the floor, saying, "I hate the smell of smoke." Helpless, Yang Letian could only smile wryly and withdraw his hand, lying back down.

"Here, have mine." Wei Luman produced a pack of cigarettes from under the pillow as if by magic. Yang Letian looked closely; it was a refreshing brand of cigarettes, the kind specifically for women.

"Huh? Didn't you just say you hated the smell of smoke? How come now…" Yang Letian asked in surprise.

"Hehe, just now was then, now is now. Besides, didn't I just say I'm a Scorpio, a bit neurotic? See? You've learned your lesson, hehe." With that, she pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and began puffing away.

Yang Letian had always believed that when women smoked, they weren't smoking the cigarette itself, but rather a feeling, a mood. A good cigarette can make a woman radiate an unusual glow and beauty. Amidst the lingering fragrance, she extends her delicate fingers, pouts her full lips, her eyes dreamy and hazy, her expression languid and intoxicated, exhaling an ambiguous aura. For most men, this might be more toxic than nicotine.

"Wasn't President Yu supposed to discuss the share transfer with you today? How come you still have so much free time?" Yang Letian deliberately brought up this topic.

"Aunt Yu mainly talked to my dad's confidants. I just acted as an introducer, and that was it. Aunt Yu is much more capable than me. I believe she will handle this matter very well and bring down that little vixen, Yuan Tingting."

Wei Luman kept using the term "little vixen," which made Yang Letian feel very uncomfortable. On one hand, he felt indignant for Yuan Tingting, but on the other hand, and more importantly, Wei Luman was now lying naked next to him, telling him she loved him, yet she hadn't forgotten him from before, and therefore still hated Yuan Tingting. As the saying goes, where there is no love, there is no hate. It was precisely because Wei Luman still couldn't forget him from before that she still harbored that hatred for Yuan Tingting. Thinking of this, Yang Letian didn't hesitate to say sourly, "I didn't expect you still have such deep feelings for him, still thinking

about him even now." "Is that not allowed?" Wei Luman's voice suddenly rose eight octaves, saying, "He was my first love, of course I can't forget him, and probably never will. But I only won't forget him, and he's someone who's no longer alive. Unlike you, someone who has several women in their heart, and they're all by your side." After saying this, Wei Luman turned her head to the side, turning her back to Yang Letian.

After hearing Wei Luman's words, Yang Letian immediately deflated. Yes, this was indeed his weakness, but he didn't understand why Wei Luman could change her attitude so suddenly. Was she really a bit neurotic? Just then, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw it was Sister Yun calling. Yang Letian's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously glanced at Wei Luman, unsure whether he should answer the call or not. If he didn't answer, he was afraid Sister Yun would worry or misunderstand; if he did answer, he was afraid Wei Luman would suddenly make a sound while he was on the phone, and then Sister Yun would see through his lie.

Just as Yang Letian was hesitating, Wei Luman spoke, but still with her back to him. Wei Luman said, "You should answer it quickly, don't let her worry, I won't say anything."

Hearing this, Yang Letian answered the phone nervously, "Hello, Sister Yun, what's up?"

"Letian, where are you now? Are you done with your work?"

"Almost, I'm on the street now, is there anything I can help you with?" Yang Letian said cautiously.

"Nothing much, if you're done, come and have dinner with me, how about I treat you to dinner tonight?"

"Well... okay... okay, where are you now? I'll come pick you up." After Yang Letian finished speaking, he glanced guiltily at Wei Luman, who was still facing away from him and didn't move.

"I'm at the McDonald's not far from the hotel, come quick! I'm waiting for you." Sister Yun seemed to be in a good mood.

"Hehe!" Yang Letian chuckled dryly, "You're not going to treat me to McDonald's, are you?"

"Hehe, you'll find out when you get here. Come on, don't say any more."

"Okay." Hanging up the phone, Yang Letian leaned down and whispered to Wei Luman, "I have to go."

"Go ahead, maybe she needs you more than I do," Wei Luman said softly, but still didn't turn around. Yang Letian hadn't expected her to be so agreeable, agreeing so readily. He had originally planned to use some persuasion, but now it was all unnecessary. Yang Letian couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "She really is a Cancer girl; her emotions change so quickly, it's truly overwhelming. I have no idea what she's thinking."

"Okay, I'll go now. Call me if you need anything." After saying that, Yang Letian quickly got dressed and prepared to leave. But just as he opened the bedroom door, he heard Wei Luman say from behind, "Catch." Yang Letian turned around and saw something flying towards him. Yang Letian was startled, but luckily he was quick-witted and agile, catching the flying object. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a car key.

"This is...?" Yang Letian asked, puzzled.

"Just take my car, so you don't have to take a taxi. It's hard to get a taxi at this time," Wei Luman said, sitting on the bed, staring blankly at him.

"Thank you! I'll return it to you first thing tomorrow morning." With that, Yang Letian fled the door, afraid that if he lingered any longer, he would be moved by Wei Luman

's eyes, which held a mixture of reproach, resentment, sorrow, and tenderness, and thus stay. Instead of heading directly to the meeting place with Sister Yun in Wei Luman's sports car, Yang Letian first went to a shopping mall to buy her a gift. Inside, he spent a long time browsing the women's goods section, unsure what to buy. After wandering around for a while, Yang Letian arrived at the "Meister.Bangwei" counter. There, a female customer, about Yang Letian's age and quite attractive, was selecting clothes. After looking through the clothes, she suddenly said to Yang Letian, "Excuse me, could you do me a favor?"

Yang Letian was surprised and pleased. After all, in public, having a beautiful woman ask for his help instead of asking someone else was quite a prestigious thing. So Yang Letian hurriedly replied, "Of course, what's up?"

"Thank you, it's like this, I'd like to buy a shirt for my friend. He's about your height, and I'd like to ask you what size shirt would fit him best."

Yang Letian countered, "Is he a little thin or a little chubby?" As he said this, he couldn't help but think, "Giving a man clothes without knowing his size, it's definitely not for a husband or boyfriend. Could it be that she has a crush on a man and wants to express her feelings through this gift?"

Yang Letian enthusiastically became the lady's free model, helping her try on a whole bunch of clothes. In the end, the lady picked out several items and bought them. Seeing this, Yang Letian couldn't help but secretly envy the unknown man, having such a beautiful and generous girl pursuing him.

"Okay, thank you!" the lady said to Yang Letian after paying.

"You're welcome, it was nothing."

"Alright, bye-bye!" the lady waved goodbye to Yang Letian and prepared to leave.

"Oh, wait a minute." Yang Letian suddenly remembered something and quickly said.

"Is there anything else?" The young lady turned around and looked at Yang Letian with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe, I also need your help. I want to buy a gift for my girlfriend, but I don't know what to get. You're a girl, so you should understand girls' feelings better than us men. What do you think I should get her?" Yang Letian said shyly.

The young woman was surprised but readily agreed, probably because Yang Letian had helped her for most of the day, and she felt bad refusing. So she started bustling around for Yang Letian. What she wanted to buy was easy; she had her own targets and could choose from specific counters. But Yang Letian had no targets, so he had to put in a lot of effort. He looked at cosmetics, jewelry, and clothes, finally deciding on a platinum necklace. The young woman put the platinum necklace on for Yang Letian to see. He thought it was beautiful and admired her taste. After paying,

they prepared to say goodbye. The young woman smiled and said to Yang Letian, "I wish you happiness!"

"Thank you! And I wish you all your dreams come true," Yang Letian said meaningfully.

When they arrived at McDonald's, he saw Sister Yun waiting there. Walking up to her, Yang Letian's eyes lit up; Sister Yun seemed even more beautiful! She wore a new snow-white dress adorned with gold thread patterns. Her long hair appeared to have been carefully styled, and her hairstyle was unlike any she had ever worn before. It wasn't loose or piled high on her head, but rather held in place by a wide hair clip, forming a wide, drooping strand at the back of her head, though only half the length of her usual loose hair. What was even more surprising was that she was wearing makeup again, and it seemed to be the most elaborate makeup she had ever worn since I met her. It looked like she had applied foundation, drawn her eyebrows, applied light lipstick, and even eyeshadow—a very alluring and seductive blue eyeshadow.

"Have you been waiting long?"

"Yeah, look at the time, I'm starving." Sister Yun pouted. "Hey, why did you drive Wei Luman's car again? Were you together all afternoon?"

"Oh, yes, Boss Kong invited her too. We had dinner together, and then we talked about some things. Then you called me to ask me to go out for dinner, and she was worried I wouldn't be able to get a taxi, so she lent me her car. I rushed here, but I'm still late. I'm so sorry! Let's go in and eat."

"Who said I was going to eat here?" Sister Yun gave him a coquettish look. "Come on, let's go shopping first."

"Didn't you say you were starving? How do you have the energy to go shopping?" Yang Letian teased with a smile.

"I was starving just now, but I'm not so hungry anymore, is that okay?" Sister Yun said, giving Yang Letian's arm a light punch.

"Okay, okay, whatever you say is true."

"Ugh!"

After wandering aimlessly through several shops with Sister Yun, Yang Letian secretly checked his phone; it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. Sister Yun noticed and asked with a smile, "Are you hungry?"

"No, no," Yang Letian quickly replied. But in his heart, he was thinking, "I just had an authentic Shanghai meal, how could I be hungry? I'm worried I won't be able to eat anything else." Thinking this, he followed Sister Yun, and when he looked up again, Sister Yun had already led him to the entrance of the underground restaurant in Xinjiekou.

Yang Letian was a little surprised: "What are we doing here?"

"I'm treating you to dinner," Sister Yun said with a smile. "Didn't I just say on the phone that I was going to treat you to dinner? Did you think I was just joking?"

"Well, it doesn't have to be here," Yang Letian thought. "This is a mid-range buffet restaurant. It costs fifty yuan per person, so it'll be one hundred and sixteen yuan for two people. Although the price isn't very expensive, I'm not hungry at all right now
. I can't afford fifty yuan worth of food. Coming here is a waste. Only big eaters would find this kind of buffet worthwhile."

Despite thinking this, Yang Letian still obediently followed Sister Yun into the restaurant and insisted on paying the bill. Although Sister Yun had said she was treating Yang Letian, she secretly smiled at this and didn't argue with him. Sister Yun took two plates, handed one to Yang Letian, and the two started ordering.

This restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes, including stir-fries, cold dishes, fruits, sausages, roasted chicken wings, chicken legs, freshly made fried eggs, roti prata, pizza, and more. There's also a beverage area offering drinks like cola and wine, with no apparent limit on how many times you can order. However, a sign reminds customers not to waste food; any food left over exceeding 200 grams will incur double the charge. The restaurant is quite large, several hundred square meters, with spacious seating and an elegant ambiance. The lighting is brighter in the food area and slightly dimmer at the tables, with some unknown music playing, creating a pleasant atmosphere. It seems Sister Yun put considerable thought into choosing this location.

The two found a table against the wall and sat down. Sister Yun got up to pour two glasses of wine and returned. After Yang Letian waited for her to sit down, he asked her, puzzled, "What's wrong with you today? Why are you so happy?"

Sister Yun smiled mysteriously and countered, "What do you think is wrong?"

"I don't know, that's why I'm asking you. Is there some good news?"

"Hmph, playing dumb." Sister Yun narrowed her eyes, her face beaming, and leaned closer to Yang Letian from the other end of the table.

"I really don't know," Yang Letian

said, spreading his hands in a helpless gesture. Sister Yun didn't seem to believe him. She picked up her glass, clinked it against his, and took a sip of wine. After eating for a while, chatting about unrelated things, Yang Letian's curiosity was piqued again: "What made you decide to come here for dinner today? There must be a reason, tell me already, you're driving me crazy!"

"You really don't know?"

"My dear little miss, you're killing me with suspense! I really don't know, just tell me already."

"Hmph, if you insist I tell you first, then I'll tell you," Sister Yun took something out of her bag and said to Yang Letian, "This is for you."

Yang Letian took it with a puzzled look, and saw it was a piece of chocolate, the brand was Jin Di. It was so big, it must have cost several yuan. Why give me this? Looking up at Sister Yun, she seemed a little shy. Yang Letian had no choice but to ask again, "What day is it today? It doesn't seem to be Valentine's Day, so why did you give me this?"

Sister Yun was a little annoyed and said, "You really don't know?" Seeing Yang Letian shake his head, Sister Yun had no choice but to lower her head and remain silent for a while before looking up and saying, "I give up. How many days

has it been since we met?" "Huh? Testing me? When was the day I met her at the bar? Wait, is it from that day, or from the day I went to Qin Xiaolu's teahouse?" Yang Letian lowered his head and thought for a moment, then a flash of inspiration struck him. He looked up and asked Sister Yun, "Is it the 500th day?"

Perhaps because of the alcohol, Sister Yun's face was flushed. She looked at Yang Letian as if she were half-drunk, neither speaking nor nodding, but Yang Letian could tell from her eyes that he was right! Then why give me chocolate? Yang Letian took the chocolate in his hand and examined it again, finally asking again, "Why did you give me this?"

"I won't tell you," Sister Yun said. A few seconds later, she said again, "It's good enough that I have something to give you. You've forgotten, you haven't given me anything yet!" Although Sister Yun said this, the corners of her mouth were turned up, showing no sign of anger.

On a whim, Yang Letian saw a vase with some flowers on a table in the corner of the restaurant, walked over, and picked a red rose. A waiter standing nearby took a step towards Yang Letian, but Yang Letian glanced at him, and the waiter stepped back without stopping him. Returning to the table, Yang Letian placed the rose in the glass in front of Sister Yun: "This is for you."

"Here we go again, the same old thing, another rose," Sister Yun said, but then carefully examined the rose: "She's much better at picking flowers than you. The rose you bought last time wasn't even fully open before you bought it, but this one is already in full bloom."

"Hehe." Yang Letian scratched his head sheepishly, carefully examining the girl in front of him. She had always been shy and reserved, passive and bashful in her interactions with him, yet she was still a generous, courageous, confident, and charming beautiful girl. With her, what else was there to worry about? At this moment, Yang Letian's eyes were only on Sister Yun. Although Yang Letian knew that a large part of his heart still belonged to Yuan Tingting, at this moment, his eyes were only on Sister Yun. Yang Letian didn't know how much regret it would bring him if he missed her in this life. Therefore, Yang Letian felt that he must seize the happiness with her and find a way to dispel the shadow that Yuan Tingting had cast on their relationship.

After dinner, it was just past nine o'clock. Yang Letian accompanied Sister Yun to stroll in the park. When they reached a locust tree, Yang Letian stopped, took out a small box containing a necklace, and handed it to Sister Yun, saying, "This is for you."

"What is this?" Sister Yun looked at the small box from left to right.

"Why don't you just open it and see?" Yang Letian reminded her.

Under the dim streetlight, Sister Yun opened the box and saw the platinum necklace gleaming alluringly.

"Here, let me put it on you." Saying this, Yang Letian took the necklace from the box and fastened it around Sister Yun's fair neck.

Sister Yun turned to Yang Letian, reached out and punched his chest, saying coquettishly, "You're so bad! You've been pretending until now! You're so bad, so bad!" As she spoke, tears streamed down her face. Yang Letian felt a surge of panic and quickly pulled her into a tight embrace, murmuring repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

But Sister Yun said softly, "It's nothing, I think I'm just too happy, too joyful." Yang Letian turned her shoulders and saw her face, flushed with happiness, and the tear tracks on her cheeks. "Tears like pear blossoms in the rain" was an understatement!

After another long kiss, Sister Yun asked Yang Letian, "Do you know why I gave you chocolate?"

"It symbolizes sweetness?" Yang Letian guessed.

"The slogan for Jin Di chocolate is: Only for the one you love most."

Yang Letian gazed into Yun Jie's eyes, his heart surging with emotion. After a few minutes of staring, he said, "You are also the one I love most." As he said this, Yang Letian wasn't thinking of Yuan Tingting, but rather, "If my parents heard this, they'd definitely scold me for raising me for nothing. Hehe, thankfully they can't hear me."

Yun Jie's eyes welled up again. She sighed softly and said, "But, Yang Letian, sometimes I feel you're very complicated, very distant. I'm afraid that if I can't hold onto you, you'll leave me far behind."

Yang Letian was speechless for a moment, unable to reply.

Chapter 86: Mutual Confessions A gentle

evening breeze rustled the shadows of the trees.

The bright moonlight bathed the river in a silvery glow.

Yang Letian and Sister Yun sat on a bench by the river. Sister Yun nestled quietly in Yang Letian's arms, gazing at the lights of the ocean-going cargo ships anchored in the distance. The waves rolled rhythmically on the sandy shore, creating dazzling white spray.

"Why do you like being with me so much? What is it about me that attracts you?" Yang Letian asked, brushing the strands of hair that the river breeze was blowing against Sister Yun's cheek. In his heart, he didn't think he was a particularly outstanding man, unworthy of Sister Yun's love. "

Liking is liking, there's no reason for it. If you can give a reason for loving someone, then it's not love." Sister Yun turned her head to Yang Letian, looking at him with deep affection.

"Sister Yun, you're so good to me. Actually, I really don't deserve you treating me like this, really!" Yang Letian pulled Sister Yun into his arms again, caressing her smooth, delicate arms, and said gently.

"I don't care if it's worth it or not, as long as I feel good and we're happy together, that's enough."

"But what about later?" Yang Letian thought. He didn't want to leave Sister Yun, but he didn't want her to leave him either. Yet, he worried about the future; he was afraid he would betray her later.

"I don't want to leave you, at least not yet. Let's not think about what will happen in the future. As long as we're happy, that's enough. Aren't we happy like this now? What more could we ask for?" Sister Yun's expression was clearly calm and detached.

"Besides your first time with us, have you done 'that' with any other man?" Yang Letian suddenly asked this question as if possessed.

"Ahem! Many!" Sister Yun glanced at Yang Letian and said.

Yang Letian thought to himself, "Yeah, she's so beautiful, it's impossible for her not to have suitors. Since she has suitors, she can't not have done 'that.' We're all adults; we all have that physiological need."

"Is it because you don't know how to choose?" Yang Letian asked Sister Yun in a teasing tone. However, as soon as Yang Letian finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his arm. It turned out that Sister Yun had pinched him hard.

"Okay...okay...I'm sorry." Yang Letian hurriedly apologized to Sister Yun.

Sister Yun turned around and comfortably lay back in Yang Letian's arms, gazing at the night sky, and said slowly, "Actually, I'm not conservative or a lady. It's just that my family was very strict with me growing up, so my thinking might be a bit traditional. Yes, many boys pursue me, but I especially dislike those men who fawn over me without any manners."

"So you've never had any desire, never thought about having sex or anything like that?" Yang Letian continued to press.

"No, I think that's a very shameful thing."

"And now?"

"Now? Hmm, it's a very happy thing." Sister Yun finished speaking and glanced at Yang Letian, looking shy.

"Hehe, it seems I'm your real first man, because I'm the one who made you truly enjoy the pleasure of sex," Yang Letian said smugly.

"Hey, here we go again." Sister Yun simply rolled over and straddled Yang Letian, her hands grabbing wildly between his thighs.

"Hey, hey, stop! stop!" In his excitement, Yang Letian even used English.

"Why?" Sister Yun retorted without backing down.

"You'll make it hard."

"So what if it's hard?" Sister Yun continued.

By this time, Yang Letian felt his pants pressing unbearably. So Yang Letian grabbed Sister Yun and they both stood up from the chair. Then, like a kidnapper, he pulled her away from the bench.

"What are you doing, going home?" Sister Yun asked as they walked.

"No, not home."

"Then where are we going?"

"Let's get in the car first!"

Yang Letian and Sister Yun got into the car. Yang Letian started the engine, stepped on the gas, and the car sped along the airport expressway. The tree-lined road outside the runway fence of Shanghai Pudong International Airport was lush with vegetation, sparsely populated, and dimly lit, quiet and peaceful.

Yang Letian parked the car under a banyan tree with dense foliage, plunging the car into darkness.

"Why did you stop here?" Sister Yun asked suspiciously.

"To watch the planes," Yang Letian replied as he unbuckled his seatbelt.

Sister Yun turned her head and looked out the car window. Although the area around where they had parked was dimly lit, the lights above the airport runway in the distance were flashing, and planes taking off and landing were clearly visible.

"Really, look, a plane is taking off! Hey! Another one!" Sister Yun said curiously, looking out the window. At this moment, Yang Letian reclined both of their seats. Then, Yang Letian turned around and took her hand. What delicate and smooth hands! He felt an extraordinary warmth in his heart. Then, Yang Letian gently placed his hand on her thigh. It felt so good, soft and smooth, like a piece of white jade.

So, they did it right there in the car, and it was a passionate, ecstatic experience. Sister Yun lifted her hips to meet his thrusts, her starry eyes sparkling. With Yang Letian's rhythmic movements, Sister Yun raised her legs high. Her elegant arches were truly breathtaking. Her beautiful feet swayed in the air, fluttering between Yang Letian's arms, struggling to enjoy the romance of sex. But in the end, for safety, Sister Yun had to use her hands to relieve Yang Letian.

"Looks like we didn't come to see airplanes today, we came to masturbate," Yang Letian said with a wicked grin.

"What's masturbating?" Sister Yun didn't understand at first, her brow furrowing slightly as she asked, puzzled.

"You were masturbating just now!" Yang Letian gestured with his hands.

"Oh, you're so naughty!" Sister Yun laughed loudly.

"Alright, Sister Yun, let's go back," Yang Letian said, rocking the chair back up.

"Why are you in such a hurry to go back? Look how quiet it is here, how fresh the air is, and we can even see the moon! How romantic!" Sister Yun said, clearly enjoying herself.

"Hehe, it's nice here, but it's not enough to fully enjoy myself," Yang Letian said with a mischievous smile.

"You're so naughty!" Sister Yun said coquettishly, "You were already like that, weren't you satisfied?"

"Hehe. That's how it was, but it's so dark here, I couldn't even see you clearly, how could I be satisfied?"

"You've looked at me so many times, and you still haven't seen me clearly? If you keep looking... if you keep looking, my body won't be attractive to you anymore." After saying that, Sister Yun blushed.

"You're so beautiful! Even if I look at you a thousand times, ten thousand times, I still won't get enough. I think I could spend my whole life looking at you and still not get enough." Yang Letian suddenly stopped his playful smile, his expression becoming affectionate and serious.

Sister Yun's tears flowed faster than if a tap had been turned on, instantly covering her face. Yang Letian's heart ached at the sight of her. He pulled her into his arms, lowered his head, and kissed her passionately. Yun Jie felt so happy she could hardly breathe. At that moment, all was silent, save for the distant planes taking off and landing

, their lights flashing mournfully in the night sky. She loved the delicate beauty of Tang and Song dynasty poetry, and also the fervor of disco and rock; she loved the tranquility of a country cottage, and also the romance of a luxurious mansion; she could sip a cup of fragrant tea, softly singing and laughing amidst the rising steam, discussing spring flowers and autumn moons; or she could drink a glass of fine wine, letting loose in the hazy, bustling city nights, unleashing her youthful energy and exuberant madness. This was Yun Jie's personality, and it seemed to reflect Yang Letian's as well.

When they returned, Yun Jie's face still radiated that happy, sweet smile. "Do you really think I'm beautiful?" Yun Jie asked, her lips slightly pursed, a hint of shyness in her voice.

"Of course! You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen!" Yang Letian replied without hesitation.

"Really?" Sister Yun tilted her head slightly to the right, her eyes wide, a smile playing on her lips.

"Have I ever lied to you?" Yang Letian smiled back.

Sister Yun was speechless, and so was Yang Letian. Sister Yun laughed, and Yang Letian laughed too.

"Didn't you always want to see me? And said you could never get enough of me?" Sister Yun blushed slightly, but she spoke earnestly.

"Yes!" Yang Letian answered briefly and firmly.

"You men just like to see girls naked," Sister Yun murmured.

"That depends on what kind of girl," Yang Letian said.

The night outside the window was beautiful, and the moonlight was beautiful too. In this beautiful night, Sister Yun stood gracefully in the moonlight. Her slightly flushed cheeks were filled with the secrets of a young woman's heart. The buttons of her snow-white dress were being unbuttoned one by one by her delicate fingers. For some reason, this time, her slender hands trembled slightly...

A gentle breeze blew in from the balcony, and her long dress slowly slid down. His eyes were drawn to her exquisitely rounded breasts and long, slender legs. A faint fragrance of orchids filled the air, refreshing and invigorating.

Yang Letian's heart suddenly trembled, and he couldn't help but look at her—she stood gracefully before him, like a lotus emerging from clear water, radiating natural beauty. Yang Letian was stunned by a beauty he had never seen before, and stood there speechless for a moment.

Little did Yang Letian know that this was actually the most radiant moment of Yun Jie's life—Yun Jie thought to herself, because for the first time in over twenty years, she had found love.

Yang Letian couldn't help but lean forward and kiss Yun Jie. He suddenly had the thought of wanting to spend his whole life with Yun Jie.

"Will you stay with me forever?" Yang Letian embraced Yun Jie and whispered.

Yun Jie stared at Yang Letian for a moment, then she told him to close his eyes. Then, Yang Letian could feel Yun Jie's warm, smooth tongue gently sliding into his mouth. Yang Letian instinctively sucked on it. After a long while, they finally grew tired. Sister Yun whispered in Yang Letian's ear, "I've already told you, did you understand?"

"Yes," Yang Letian nodded. His hand, however, involuntarily slipped inside her bra. Touching her soft, elastic breasts, she instinctively gasped. Her hands then aimlessly poked and kneaded Yang Letian's back. Yang Letian skillfully unhooked Sister Yun's bra, his right hand slipping inside her panties. She shyly avoided Yang Letian's gaze…

The two remained embracing and kissing. In the moonlight, far removed from the world.

"Do you know? I've really fallen in love with you!" Sister Yun looked at Yang Letian, tears welling in her eyes.

"I know, I know everything," Yang Letian said softly, gently stroking her soft shoulders.

"Don't you think I'm cheap?" Sister Yun buried her head in Yang Letian's chest, and Yang Letian could smell the fragrance of her hair.

"How could I!" Yang Letian said.

"Actually, I did that because I love you so much. I feel it's only right to do anything for the one I love."

"I love your unpretentious personality."

"I don't know why I did that. I just felt I had to fulfill all your wishes. I can't bear to see the one I love suffer. That day in the taxi, seeing how passionate you were, I felt I should do something for you."

"Thank you."

"Really, that's what I really thought at the time. I don't think there's anything shameful or wrong about it."

"You're so good!"

"Maybe that's just how we women are. Once we fall in love with someone, we're willing to sacrifice everything."

"I'm so lucky!"

"Letian, I'll cook for you, wash your clothes, massage your back, wash your feet, and pour you tea..."

"Alright, haha, do you think I'm some kind of prince or nobleman?" Yang Letian was genuinely amused. He thought to himself, "Women are all like this at times like this."

"These are all my honest thoughts, don't laugh at me." Sister Yun still maintained a serious expression.

"I'm not making fun of you, I really thank you. Besides, do I need you to wash my feet every day? Do you think we're in your little mountain village?"

"Oh, this is my kind gesture. You're so talented, don't you understand?"

"Alright, alright, I appreciate your kindness. Actually, there's one more thing."

"What?" Sister Yun was a little confused.

"Sleep with me!"

"No way!"

"Then who will you sleep with?"

"I'm ignoring you!" Sister Yun broke free from Yang Letian's embrace, went into the inner room, and came out again after a while.

"Letian, does it look good?" Sister Yun stood straight in front of the door, her hands hanging at her sides, a joyful smile on her face as she looked at Yang Letian.

Yang Letian looked at Sister Yun and saw that she was wearing a royal blue suit, the low neckline and tight waist showing off her curvaceous figure perfectly.

"It looks good, it looks so good. What, did you buy it?" Yang Letian asked.

"Yes, I bought it at a shopping mall this afternoon, isn't it pretty? The saleswoman even gave me a 5% discount, and she kept praising my figure." Sister Yun said happily.

Yang Letian silently looked at Sister Yun for a while. Suddenly, Yang Letian hugged Sister Yun's waist, and with a little more force, Sister Yun fell into his arms. Yang Letian kissed Sister Yun's lips while trying to unbutton her clothes.

When Yang Letian touched Sister Yun's round and firm breasts... Yun Jie gently pushed him away, sat up, tidied her messy hair, and said, "I'm going to take a shower." With that, she smiled and went into the bathroom. Then, Yang Letian heard the sound of running water.

Yang Letian paused for a moment, then followed her straight to the bathroom. He pushed open the door. Seeing Yang Letian, the naked Yun Jie froze. Before she could react, Yang Letian had already carried her out of the bathroom. He placed her on the double bed in the bedroom.

Every woman cherishes her first love, her first love, deeply! Subsequent men can only be better than him; if they are even slightly inferior, it will make her very sad. Therefore, Yang Letian refused to let himself lose to any man; he couldn't let Yun Jie feel sad. He would only give her pleasure; Yang Letian wanted her to "die." Because Yang Letian had heard some women say, "Only after 'dying' under a man a few times can one say they haven't lived a wasted life as a woman!"

At this moment, Yun Jie was completely soaked. Women are like water, and Yang Letian longed for that feeling. At this moment, life's gates were wide open, all fences were torn down, and the frozen earth began to thaw. The only barriers between them were the old, outdated rules of the world and the tedious ways of the gentleman. Yang Letian saw himself as a proud, unconventional, and resolute pioneer. To prove his existence, his own power, he ventured into that ancient, frozen, barren land. He would cultivate that thousand-year-old wasteland, sowing his own seeds!

At that moment, he could erupt, burn, surge, and rush forth without restraint. The heavens and earth trembled, lightning flashed and thunder roared. To forge a mulberry field, to cast eternity. He toiled, and a gale came, howling with flying sand and stones, roaring with earth-shattering fury, plunging the sky into darkness, tearing apart

the clouds, crashing against the blue sky, pushing down boulders, uprooting trees. He stormed into this vast ocean, instantly stirring up its turbulent waves.

Where...where is she...? Yang Letian anxiously searched for Sister Yun's elegant figure. In the sky, Sister Yun's beautiful, crystalline body was tossed about by the gale. She was beautiful, she was crystalline, but she was not fragile at all. She struggled to twist her crystalline body, bravely rushing towards the gale... She was brave, she was delicate, and her delicate body was tossed high into the sky again and again by the gale...

After the storm, Sister Yun smiled like a flower, tears streaming down her face. Under the moonlight, she slowly straightened her legs and lay quietly. The moonlight shining on her was like raindrops falling on the earth, splashing everywhere. She stretched out her graceful figure, dazzling light splashing around her, freely traversing the sky, gently penetrating the air. There was not a ripple in the air, only a long, bright streak left behind, like a shooting star streaking across the night sky, so dazzling, so radiant. She was like the lightest, most beautiful shooting star, pure and flawless, sparkling and bright.

Sister Yun leaned against Yang Letian's strong chest, listening to his heartbeat.

"This warm shoulder is the paradise I've been searching for my whole life," Sister Yun murmured to herself.

"Letian, I'm a little thirsty," Sister Yun said languidly, looking at Yang Letian with tender affection.

Yang Letian got out of bed and brought a bottle of mineral water from the living room. Sister Yun took a sip and couldn't help but exclaim, "So sweet!" Her expression seemed to convey a faint, sweet fragrance.

At this moment, Yang Letian gently pulled her into his arms, teasingly saying, "Hmph, you're lying to me again. You even say mineral water is sweet."

Sister Yun smiled, her mature and alluring demeanor vanishing, replaced by a charming and adorable expression. She earnestly told Yang Letian, "It's sweet, because that's the taste of happiness!"

Chapter 87 Going to the Wei Family

Yang Letian was being affectionate with Sister Yun when the phone on the bedside table rang. Yang Letian guessed it was Yu Jie calling, and when he answered, it was indeed Yu Jie. "Hello, Letian, what did Boss Kong and the others say to you at dinner today?"

"Hehe, nothing new. They just kept bragging about how great they are and how optimistic their future is. Anyway, I just listened and didn't say anything, just following your instructions." Yang Letian reported truthfully.

"Hmm, you did a good job. Oh, by the way, was Xiao Zhang there?"

"Oh, she was. Why?" Yang Letian felt strange. He didn't understand why Yu Jie would suddenly mention her. She was just a secretary, insignificant.

"Didn't she say anything to you?" Yu Jie asked meaningfully.

Yang Letian suddenly realized, and couldn't help but secretly admire Yu Jie's insight. She had long seen through Kong Zirong's intention in bringing Xiao Zhang to dinner, but hadn't pointed it out to him. At the same time, Yang Letian couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate that Wei Luman had come to find him later, otherwise he really wouldn't have been able to resist Xiao Zhang's temptation. If he had really been seduced into bed by Xiao Zhang, even if Yu Jie didn't pursue the matter, she would probably look down on him from then on. Thinking of this, Yang Letian couldn't help but think to himself, "Thank God, thank God!"

"Hehe, President Yu, you've figured it out too. That Xiao Zhang did have that intention, but I ignored her and left after dinner." Yang Letian said, as if to take credit.

"Hehe, you're smart. If you couldn't resist temptation, not only would Xiao Yun not let you off the hook, but I wouldn't either." Yu Jie said with a smile.

"How could that be? My willpower is incredibly strong. How could someone like Xiao Zhang possibly tempt me?" Yang Letian said, beaming. Sister Yun chuckled softly, giving his arm a light pinch.

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Yu, how's your personal matter going? Is it going smoothly?" Yang Letian asked, his real intentions unclear.

"Sigh!" Yu Jie sighed softly. Hearing this sigh, Yang Letian secretly rejoiced, because judging from her tone, the share transfer negotiations were probably not going well. Sure enough, Yu Jie said, "Not so smoothly. Never mind, let's not talk about it."

"Then when are we leaving Shanghai?" Yang Letian didn't want to stay here any longer. Every extra day he stayed increased the risk of Yu Jie finding out. He had already told Wei Luman that he and Yu Jie were lovers. If Wei Luman suddenly became neurotic and directly asked Yu Jie, he would be in big trouble. He wasn't confident he could get Yu Jie in a short time either. So he was eager to leave Shanghai and Wei Luman, which would greatly reduce his risk.

"It'll be in the next few days, right? What? Want to go back already? Consider this trip a vacation, all the food and drinks are covered by the company, why are you in such a hurry to go back?" Yu Jie said with a smile.

"No rush, no rush, I was just asking. I know this trip is all thanks to you, President Yu, otherwise where would I get such a great free vacation opportunity? President Yu, your kindness is immense..."

"Alright, alright, stop it!" Yu Jie interrupted Yang Letian's joke with a smile. Although Yu Jie was smiling, Yang Letian could still hear a hint of fatigue and helplessness in her laughter. "It must be because she didn't handle her business well, which is why she's not in a good mood." Yang Letian thought to himself, "But then again, if you're in a good mood, then I'm not."

"Do I have anything to do tomorrow?" Yang Letian asked.

"I need to talk to Boss Kong tomorrow. You can come with me, or not, it's up to you," Yu Jie said. "Okay, that's all for now. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

Early the next morning, Yang Letian drove Wei Luman's car to take Yu Jie to Wuyu Company. When they arrived, Yang Letian said, "I won't go in with you. I'll return the car to Wei Luman."

"Okay, be careful, drive slowly," Yu Jie carefully reminded him.

"I know. Do you want me to pick you up at noon?"

"No need. I have my own things to do after talking to Boss Kong. You go ahead and do your thing, don't worry about me," Yu Jie said as she got out of the car.

"Okay, bye-bye!"

Yang Letian quickly drove to the old-fashioned alley where Wei Luman lived. Just as he was about to get out of the car, he saw Wei Luman walking out of the alley. Yang Letian waved and called out, "Hey, Xiaoman."

Wei Luman looked up at the sound of his voice, saw it was Yang Letian, smiled at him, and then walked quickly towards him. Seeing her smiling face, Yang Letian knew she must be in a good mood today, and he couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

"Why are you here so early?" Wei Luman asked with a smile, leaning against the car door.

"I came to return your car. I was afraid you would need it urgently, so I rushed over early this morning to return it." Looking at Wei Luman's radiant face, Yang Letian suddenly had an urge to kiss her.

"You guessed right, I do need the car. Let's go!" With that, Wei Luman ran to the side, opened the passenger door, and got in.

"Where are you going so early in the morning?" Yang Letian asked in surprise. He originally planned to leave after returning the car, not daring to linger with her any longer. He figured he couldn't get any valuable information about the share transfer from her anyway, and it seemed the only way to get concrete information was through Yu Jie.

"Come to my place."

"Your place?" Yang Letian didn't understand for a moment, saying, "Then this is...?"

"Idiot, this is a temporary place I'm renting, not my home." Wei Luman glared at him.

"Oh." Yang Letian suddenly realized, saying, "Then you go by yourself, I'll get off at the next intersection."

"Why? Can't I go to my house? Oh, don't get the wrong idea, you're just going as my ordinary friend, don't think you have any special status." After saying that, a blush rose on Wei Luman's face.

"Hehe," Yang Letian chuckled awkwardly. "I didn't mean that. I think even for ordinary friends, it's probably not appropriate to go to your house so abruptly. Your house isn't an ordinary house, you know."

"How is my house not an ordinary house? Is my house some kind of den of wolves and tigers?" Wei Luman's almond-shaped eyes widened as she angrily questioned.

"Oh dear, what am I supposed to say to you? Why do you always misunderstand what I mean?" Yang Letian said impatiently.

"Then tell me, what do you mean?" Wei Luman persisted, pressing on.

"What I mean is that your house isn't an ordinary house because you have a very powerful father. Your father, Wei Zulin, is known as Boss Wei. Just mentioning his name can scare away a bunch of thugs. Do you think an ordinary family can do that?" Yang Letian explained.

"Scare away thugs? How did you know that?" Wei Luman asked in surprise.

Yang Letian smiled and recounted to Wei Luman everything he and Sister Yun had witnessed at her disco that day. He concluded by saying, "Hehe, you were really impressive that day! You silenced that fat security guard with just a few words, scared away that white-haired man, and saved the girl. It was truly gratifying! You're a heroine, a woman who doesn't yield to men!"

"Go away, stop flattering me! I'm no heroine! I can't stand men bullying women. I recognized that white-haired man; he often collects protection money around the entertainment plaza. He's a coward who bullies the weak. Some business owners are too timid to fight them, or they disdain to fight them. As long as the money they ask for isn't too much, they give it to them. My entertainment venues have also given them some money, just like giving alms to beggars. I'm too lazy to bother them with anything else." "But they went too far that day, beating that little girl so badly, so I came out to say a few words. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered to come out and see them. Their petty behavior is disgusting." Wei Luman paused for a moment after speaking, then continued, "Oh, so you were there that day too? Why were you just as indifferent as those bystanders, watching that girl get beaten while you stood by and did nothing? I didn't expect you to be such a callous, heartless person who wouldn't help someone in distress." With that, Wei Luman gave Yang Letian a disdainful look.

Yang Letian immediately blushed, opened his mouth to defend himself, but swallowed his words. After all, he hadn't helped; that was a fact. If he spoke up now, it would be tantamount to shirking responsibility, only making Wei Luman despise him even more. So, Yang Letian felt the best course of action was to remain silent and continue driving.

Seeing his flushed face and silent demeanor, Wei Luman chuckled and said, "Alright, speaking of which, if you had really taken action back then, you'd probably be lying in the hospital looking like a pig's head now, hehe. Discretion is the better part of valor, and it seems you are one of those wise men."

Yang Letian knew Wei Luman was belittling him, so he could only smile wryly and say, "Not just me, but everyone present was a wise man."

"That's true, it's a pity there are so many wise men like that nowadays."

"Hehe." Yang Letian chuckled dryly twice and said, "I didn't expect you to be so cynical."

"Hehe, this isn't called cynicism, it's called being intolerant of the ugliness of the world, understand?" Wei Luman spoke in an arrogant tone.

"Understood, oh, by the way, what happened to that girl later?" Yang Letian changed the subject.

"It's nothing serious, just superficial injuries. It'll be fine in a couple of days. Actually, to be honest, that girl bears some responsibility for what happened. Although I own the disco, I don't encourage girls her age (seventeen or eighteen) to go to entertainment venues like ours. It's too complicated there; all sorts of people are there—drug addicts, prostitutes, you name it. Even the purest girl will be corrupted if she stays there too long. Besides, that girl was exposing herself in public; how could she not attract those lewd and shameless men?" Wei Luman said, heartbroken.

"Heh, you're blaming everyone equally," Yang Letian said with a laugh.

"What do you mean, blaming everyone equally? I'm just stating the facts, without any emotional bias," Wei Luman said, rolling her eyes at Yang Letian.

"Yes, yes," Yang Letian nodded, not wanting to argue with her. After a while, he said again, "Do you really want me to go to your house?"

"If you really don't want to, then forget it. Get out of the car," Wei Luman said, feigning anger.

"Of course I'd love to! Actually, I'd like to see your father in person too. But if I really go empty-handed, it wouldn't be good. I should buy something to take with me." Yang Letian suddenly changed his mind, thinking that meeting Wei Zulin would be beneficial and harmless, and he could test Wei Zulin's attitude towards the share transfer.

"Hehe, at least you have some conscience. Just buy a few health supplements from that shopping mall over there as a token." Wei Luman said with a grin.

"I know, what don't you have at home? Do you care what I bring? I'm just showing my appreciation. Hehe, but speaking of which, if I'm not going as a regular friend, but in some other capacity, those health supplements won't do, hehe." Yang Letian said meaningfully.

Wei Luman blushed slightly, reached out and pinched Yang Letian's thigh hard, scolding, "Get lost! Do you think that what I did with you yesterday means I won't marry anyone but you? Not at all! Actually, I have many choices, and you're just one of them, and the least hopeless one at that."

Yang Letian knew she was joking, so he joked back, "Yeah, how could a girl as beautiful and rich as you not have suitors? I'd believe you if you said a whole company of men were chasing you, but there's one thing I'm wondering about: do all the men who chase you have what I did yesterday?" After saying that, Yang Letian quickly covered his thigh with one hand, afraid that she would reach out and pinch him again.

As expected, Wei Luman blushed after hearing Yang Letian's words and reached out to pinch him. However, instead of aiming for his thigh, Wei Luman's hand went for his mouth, saying, "I'll tear your stinking mouth apart."

Yang Letian hadn't expected her to attack from this direction and couldn't dodge in time. Wei Luman pinched his upper lip squarely, causing him to wince in pain. He quickly turned his head, trying to escape her clutches, but just then, the car in front of them suddenly braked sharply. Yang Letian broke out in a cold sweat and frantically slammed on the brakes, but it was too late. With a slight thud, his car collided with the car in front.

"Hey, how do you drive?" A young woman got out of the car in front, dressed flamboyantly and heavily made up, looking like a socialite from Shanghai in the 1920s or 30s. Behind the young woman followed a man in his thirties, wearing glasses and with a refined appearance, resembling a literary youth from the 1930s or 40s—cunning on the inside but innocent on the outside, exactly the kind of image that appealed to Southern beauties. The image of a literary youth from the last century was classic: large scarves, glasses, and a parted hairstyle. They spoke with poetic eloquence, quiet yet devoted, an image highly favored by women, especially those with a strong artistic temperament. Only naive, pockmarked girls would be fans of tone-deaf singers; sophisticated, bourgeois beauties preferred eloquent literary youths. Of course, such youths needed a wealthy family background—ideally a billionaire father, or at least a multi-millionaire. A literary youth from a poor family, no matter how refined, wouldn't suit a beautiful woman's taste. A beautiful woman needs fine clothes and a luxurious life, and even a canary needs a gilded cage. To have a happy marriage, one must wear world-renowned brands, eat high-end food, live in a luxurious mansion, drive a concept car, and chat about literature with handsome men. Beautiful women and penniless men have nothing in common; beautiful women's eyes are always on young men from the middle class or above—that's the bottom line. Men who are barely well-off are not valued at all; men who haven't even reached that level and are still struggling to make ends meet simply give up on the idea of marriage, focusing on improving their family's finances before considering marriage. Some men, with only a few meager bills in their pockets, debating whether to add meat to a bowl of noodles, have their eyes fixed on beautiful women, claiming they won't marry anyone but a beautiful woman. And indeed, one such woman was married, only to demand a divorce three days later—she turned out to be an escaped patient from a mental hospital!

Chapter 88 A Little Trick

"Oh, sorry, sorry, I really didn't notice!" Yang Letian quickly apologized. It turned out there was an intersection ahead, and the light was red, so the car braked suddenly. Yang Letian and Wei Luman were playing around and didn't notice the situation ahead, so they accidentally collided with the car in front.

"What's the use of 'sorry'? What if you wrecked my car?" the young woman shouted, completely disregarding her image.

Yang Letian took a closer look and saw that there was indeed a shallow mark on the rear of the car, not very serious; it was more like a scrape than a collision. Seeing this, Yang Letian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, "Thank goodness, the impact wasn't too serious. It shouldn't cost much; five hundred yuan should be enough." So, Yang Letian casually asked, "Then tell me, how much should I pay?"

The young woman looked at Yang Letian, then at the sports car behind him, and said, "Well, seeing that your attitude is quite good, I won't ask for too much. Just give me ten thousand, and we'll go our separate ways."

"What? Ten thousand? Isn't that asking for too much?" Yang Letian could hardly believe his ears. "Are you kidding me? It was just a light scratch, not even any paint chipped, and you want ten thousand? Besides, your car isn't some luxury car like a Mercedes or BMW; why would you need to pay ten thousand?"

"What?" The young woman jumped up, angrily saying, "So you don't want to pay?"

"It's not that I don't want to pay, I absolutely have to pay," Yang Letian said.

"Then just give me the money! Why all the nonsense?" the young woman said impatiently.

"But what you're doing isn't compensation, it's extortion," Yang Letian said angrily.

"What? Extortion? Open your eyes and look! Your car is better than mine, but look at my license plate. Look closely, it's from the municipal government compound. Do you think the municipal government would extort you?" The young woman raised her voice. "Xiao Cui, call Brother Wang and tell him our car was hit by someone else. Tell him to send Director Li over to handle it immediately."

Yang Letian was puzzled by the young woman's arrogant tone and her claims of having connections with a high-ranking official. He couldn't figure out her background. After all, he had just arrived in Shanghai and wasn't familiar with the area. If he really offended a high-ranking official, things would get really bad! Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake, let alone someone as powerful as himself. Thinking of this, Yang Letian hesitated for a moment, then looked back at Wei Luman sitting in the car. He wondered what her attitude would be, since she seemed familiar with the area.

Seeing Yang Letian hesitate and glance back at his companion—who was just a woman, how powerful could she be?—the young woman felt smug and said, "Scared now? Actually, I'm not the kind of person who pushes people too far. Just give me ten thousand yuan, and we'll go our separate ways. Otherwise..." At this moment, the man behind her took out his phone, as if to make a call, as if he could transmit the call directly to the desk of some leader in the municipal government at the young woman's command. "Then call

," Wei Luman said casually as she got out of the car and stood next to Yang Letian. "I want to see which leader's relative, mistress, or concubine in the municipal government dares to be so arrogant and brazen, openly extorting money in broad daylight."

The young woman was stunned, clearly taken aback by Wei Luman's casual tone. After a moment, she shouted, "Who are you? Explain yourself! Who's the mistress? If you don't give me a clear answer today, I'm not finished with you!"

Wei Luman smiled and said, "Strange, are there still women like this in the world? They admit to being mistresses without being asked. Alas! The world is going to the dogs, people's hearts are no longer what they used to be!" As she spoke, Wei Luman reverted to her previous pained expression. Yang Letian watched, secretly amused.

The young woman then realized she had made a mistake. She had been given two choices: relatives or family members, or mistresses and concubines. Yet she had chosen mistresses and concubines, which was a clear admission of guilt. The man behind her shook his head inwardly when the young woman questioned Wei Luman about who her mistress was. He wanted to stop her, but it was too late. He could only remain silent and observe the situation. Having spent much of his life in officialdom, although his rank wasn't high yet, he was adept at judging people. He could tell from Wei Luman's clothes and mannerisms that she was no ordinary girl and might be someone of considerable influence. Therefore, he decided not to speak up for the young woman for the time being, but to observe her further.

Meanwhile, the young woman, realizing she couldn't win an argument with Wei Luman, pulled out what she considered her trump card. Turning to the man, she said, "Xiao Cui, don't waste your breath on them. Quickly call Brother Wang and ask him to send Director Li over to handle this."

“Okay, Miss Chen, I’ll call him right away.” With that, the man flipped open his phone and started dialing. Actually, he didn’t really want to call this Brother Wang; he was just testing Wei Luman and her group’s reaction.

Sure enough, Wei Luman spoke up, saying, “Go ahead and call. But I think we shouldn’t call Director Li; he’s probably just some branch office director. I think we should just call Director Zhao directly. He’s in charge of traffic in Shanghai. Oh, by the way, do you have his phone number? If not, I have it, I can tell you.” With that, Wei Luman took out her phone, opened her contacts, and started searching.

The young woman was skeptical after hearing Wei Luman’s words. She glanced back at the man, who nodded slightly, indicating that Wei Luman wasn’t lying and that there was indeed a Director Zhao in charge of traffic. The young woman's expression changed slightly. She turned and glared fiercely at Wei Luman and Yang Letian. After a long while, she managed to squeeze out three words: "You win!" Then she walked to the car door, opened it, and said to the man, "Let's go."

Yang Letian hadn't expected the situation to take such a sudden turn. They were leaving without asking for a single penny. He had thought that with the woman's outrageous attitude, he would definitely have to pay a hefty sum. But to his surprise, he didn't even have to pay a small amount. This made Yang Letian both surprised and delighted. He couldn't help but admire her, saying, "Hehe, Xiaoman, you're really something! You got rid of that shrew with just a few words. Impressive!"

"Tch, what's so special about that? I've seen plenty of people like her. They rely on their little bit of power to throw tantrums. To deal with someone like her, you have to be even more ruthless than her to keep her in check, otherwise she'll have you cornered," Wei Luman said disdainfully.

“You need to have some power to keep her in check. Like just now, if you hadn’t mentioned Director Zhao, she wouldn’t have left so obediently,” Yang Letian said as he started the car.

“What Director Zhao? Director Li? I don’t know him at all, haha!” Wei Luman smiled smugly, as if her little scheme had worked.

“What? You lied to her? How did you know there was such a person as Director Zhao? And that he was in charge of transportation?” Yang Letian asked, puzzled.

“I just happened to see this Director Zhao on the news once and knew he was a deputy director in charge of transportation, so I accidentally mentioned his name just now, and it actually worked, hehe! I was just pretending to look through the phone book; I don’t actually have his phone number.” After saying that, Wei Luman laughed heartily.

After hearing this, Yang Letian was utterly impressed by Wei Luman's intelligence and wit. He said, "I didn't expect you to be so clever. I even thought you were really sworn brothers with that Director Zhao."

"Hehe, of course! I'm definitely smarter than you. Look at you just now. As soon as you heard she had connections in the municipal government, your face changed. If I hadn't felt sorry for you, I wouldn't have bothered to help you. I'd rather you had to spend your money."

Yang Letian smiled sheepishly and said, "I'm new here, you know. I don't know the situation here. What if she really has some powerful backing? I can't fight her. Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake."

"Tch, you call yourself a powerful dragon? I think you're more like a worm at best, hehe." Wei Luman said with a coquettish laugh.

"Yes, yes, you're right. I'm just a worm, especially down there, where there are a lot of worms." Yang Letian said with a mischievous grin.

"There are so many bugs there, what does that mean?" Wei Luman didn't understand his meaning at first, so she asked. Although she didn't understand... what Yang Letian meant, seeing his mischievous smile, she knew he definitely wasn't saying anything nice. After thinking about it carefully, Wei Luman finally realized, and her cheeks flushed red again. She glared at Yang Letian and scolded, "You rascal, hurry up and drive your car."

Yang Letian drove to the entrance of a shopping mall and stopped, then said to Wei Luman, "Don't get out, I'm going in to buy a few things, I'll be right back."

"Go ahead, I'll wait for you, but you have to come back quickly." Wei Luman said as she opened her small bag, took out a lipstick, and started applying it in front of a small mirror.

"Okay, I'll be right there." With that, Yang Letian opened the car door and walked into the mall. A little while later, Yang Letian returned to the car carrying several bags and several items.

"Didn't you say you'd just buy a couple of things as a token gesture? Why did you buy so much?" Wei Luman asked in surprise.

"Hehe, you saved me a lot of money today, so I want to thank you. Here, these things are for you." With that, Yang Letian handed two paper bags in his right hand to Wei Luman.

"Bought this for me? Hehe, at least you have some conscience. Let me see what you bought!" Wei Luman eagerly opened a paper bag, only to find a box of "Tai Tai Oral Liquid" inside. Wei Luman was immediately dumbfounded, scolding, "What do you mean? Giving me this? I'm not even married yet."

Yang Letian laughed, "Who said drinking 'Tai Tai Oral Liquid' means you have to be a wife? It's just a name, why bother arguing about appearances? Didn't you watch TV? The ad says it's for nourishing blood and beautifying the complexion, perfect for women like you."

"Tch, you believe what the ad says?" Wei Luman pouted, "Fine, since you bought it, I'll accept it. Let me see what's inside. It's not some kind of Brain Gold or Red Peach K stuff, is it?"

"Hehe, you're right, but Brain Gold is in this bag, your bag doesn't contain that stuff." Yang Letian chuckled.

"Oh, then I'd like to see what treasures are inside!" With that, Wei Luman opened the packaging. It was a set of Avon cosmetics. "Hehe, this is more like it, much better than the last one."

Seeing Wei Luman's happy expression, Yang Letian was also quite pleased. He laughed and said, "Hehe, thank goodness, at least there's one that satisfies you. If you weren't satisfied, then I would have really wasted my effort."

"You think giving gifts is a simple matter? There's a lot to it, especially gifts for girls. You can't just give anything. Sigh, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. Let's drive."

About half an hour later, the car stopped in front of an old-fashioned building. This three-story building resembled architecture from the old Shanghai Bund era, but it also seemed to have been renovated, as the white marble at the corners of the exterior walls was clearly newly added. The courtyard was quite large, probably two or three hundred square meters. Three cars were parked inside, plus Wei Luman's sports car, making four vehicles in total, yet it didn't feel crowded at all. In another corner of the courtyard, there was a stone table, four stone benches, several trees, and a vine growing above the table, forming a green screen to block out the sun.

Several people were sitting around the stone table. One of the girls, seeing Wei Luman's car drive in, said, "Xiaoman's back!" Yang Letian looked in the direction of the voice; the girl seemed older than Wei Luman, but looked somewhat like her. At this moment, Wei Luman said from the side, "That's my older sister, Wei Luzhu. Come on, get out of the car, let me introduce you." Actually, Yang Letian had already guessed that this girl was probably Wei Luman's older sister, Wei Luzhu, because Yuan Tingting had already shown him the information about Wei Zulin's family, so Yang Letian basically knew all the family members. However, the information Yuan Tingting gave him didn't include photos of the family members, so although Yang Letian knew everyone's name, he didn't know what they looked like.

At this moment, Wei Luzhu had already walked to their car. Seeing that the driver wasn't Wei Luman, but a young man, she was taken aback at first, but quickly showed a knowing smile. "Sister, don't misunderstand, he's just an ordinary friend of mine, here in Shanghai on a business trip, and stopped by to visit." Wei Luman got out of the car, ran to Wei Luzhu's side, and took her hand, acting coquettishly.

"Hehe. Sister didn't say anything, why are you in such a hurry to explain? Are you hiding something?" Wei Luzhu whispered in Wei Luman's ear.

“Don’t talk nonsense,” Wei Luman shook Wei Luzhu’s hand and said, “Let me introduce you. This is my sister, Wei Luzhu, and this is my friend, Yang Letian.”

“Hello!” Yang Letian quickly extended his hand.

“Hello!” Wei Luzhu also politely extended her hand, and then she said, “Come on, let’s go over there. Dad is waiting for us over there.”

“Okay, Letian, look, my dad is over there. Let’s go over.”

Yang Letian nodded and followed behind the sisters. Actually, before Yang Letian even got out of the car, his attention was already on Wei Zulin sitting at the stone table. Since he was the only old man there, Yang Letian guessed that he was Wei Zulin. Sure enough, he was right. Wei Zulin was dressed casually in a cotton short-sleeved t-shirt and shorts, in light and dark gray. The fabric was obviously of good quality and must be a designer brand. The summer morning sun shone through the gaps in the leaves onto his face, highlighting the fine veins on his forehead and a few age spots.

"Dad, I'm having tea," Wei Luman said with a grin, leaning against Wei Zulin.

"You silly girl, you finally know how to come back?" Wei Zulin's tone was reproachful, but there was an undisguised tenderness in it.

"Hehe, Dad, this is my home, why wouldn't I come back?" Wei Luman said sweetly, hugging Wei Zulin's neck.

"You know this is your home? Then why are you still renting a place outside? Trying to annoy your old man? You should learn from your sister. Look at Luzhu, she's married and hasn't moved out yet. She lives at home with your brother-in-law, keeping this old man company. Humph, if it were you, you would have already run off somewhere!" Wei Zulin said, taking a sip of tea.

"Hehe, Xiaoman is still young. Being playful and active is in her nature. She'll be fine when she's older," said a man sitting next to Wei Zulin.

“Hehe, brother-in-law, you’re right, he’s still young. Okay, let’s not talk about that anymore. Come on, let me introduce you to a friend.” Wei Luman pulled Yang Letian, who was standing behind, over and said, “This is my friend Yang Letian, and this is my dad.”

Yang Letian bowed respectfully and said, “Uncle, hello!”

“Hello! Please sit down!” Wei Zulin was also quite polite.

“Thank you!” Yang Letian said after sitting down, “This is just a small token, nothing special!” After saying that, he placed the large and small bags he had bought on the stone table.

“Hehe, young man, you’re quite polite. You’ve come all this way, why did you buy so much stuff? You’ve spent so much money.” Wei Zulin said with a smile, “Aunt Wu, take these things inside.”

“Yes.” An elderly woman in her fifties who was standing not far from them came over and carried the things downstairs.

Chapter 89 A Probing Conversation

Yang Letian glanced at Wei Luzhu and her husband, and said apologetically, "I came in a hurry and didn't bring you any gifts, I'm so sorry!"

"Young man, you're too kind. It's good that you came, there's no need for gifts," said Wei Luzhu's husband. Wei Luzhu's husband already considered Yang Letian Wei Luman's boyfriend, so he addressed Yang Letian as "brother" instead of "sir." However, Yang Letian didn't understand the different meanings behind these two different titles, assuming he was just a generous and easygoing person.

"Oh, right, I haven't introduced you yet. Letian, this is my brother-in-law, Comrade Ding Dazhan, hehe."

"Oh, hello Brother Ding!" Yang Letian thought that since he called him "brother," he could only call him "Brother Ding." If he called him "sir Ding," wouldn't he think he looked down on him and didn't want to be brothers with him?

“Hehe, brother-in-law, although Letian didn’t buy you a gift, he did buy one for my sister. Look, this is the ‘Lady’s Oral Liquid’ he gave her. My sister just became a wife, so this is perfect for her, hehe.” Wei Luman handed the “Lady’s Oral Liquid” that Yang Letian had given her to Wei Luzhu, saying that Yang Letian had bought it especially for her. Yang Letian couldn’t help but smile wryly, thinking, “I hope Comrade Ding Dazhan doesn’t misunderstand.”

Wei Luzhu saw that Yang Letian had first said he hadn’t bought them any gifts, and now that Wei Luman said the “Lady’s Oral Liquid” was a gift from Yang Letian, she understood a bit, because she always knew her younger sister’s temperament, so she smiled and said, “Then thank you, Xiaoman.”

“Eh, why are you thanking me? It’s not like I gave it to you, don’t thank the wrong person.” Wei Luman asked curiously.

“You little rascal, you know what’s going on.”

Wei Luman stuck out her tongue and leaned against Wei Luzhu, saying coquettishly, “Sister, why are you so smart? Can’t you be a little dumber? Even pretending to be dumb would be fine.”

Wei Luman’s words made everyone laugh. After the laughter subsided, Ding Dazhan stood up and said, “Brother Yang, why don’t you chat with Dad for a while? Luzhu and I will go back to our room to rest.” Then he turned to Wei Zulin and said, “Dad, I’m going.”

“Okay, you two go ahead. You’ve been busy all night and haven’t had much rest. Hurry up and go back to your room with Luzhu to rest,” Wei Zulin said. It turned out that the couple managed an entertainment center, which was usually busy at night and quiet during the day. He and Wei Luzhu usually didn’t return until around four in the morning. They would sleep for a short while, then get up in the morning to have tea and chat with Wei Zulin before going back to sleep, usually until dinner in the evening. Their lifestyle was the opposite of most people's, so Yang Letian was initially surprised, wondering, "Why are they resting in broad daylight?" But after thinking about it carefully, he understood.

At this time, only Yang Letian, Wei Luman, and Wei Zulin remained in the courtyard. Wei Zulin asked, "Little Yang, where do you work?"

Before Yang Letian could answer, Wei Luman interjected, "Dad, you're his boss, actually."

"Oh, how so? Could it be that he is..." Wei Zulin's tone sounded somewhat surprised.

"That's right, Dad, you guessed right. He works at Julong Company, currently as the investment manager under Aunt Yu."

"Oh, so young and already an investment manager, not bad, truly a promising young talent!" Wei Zulin praised.

"Not at all. Compared to your generation who started from scratch, what am I?" Yang Letian said modestly.

"Hehe, young man, you're quite modest, not bad! Oh, by the way, are you the only one who came to Shanghai?"

Yang Letian was taken aback upon hearing this, thinking to himself, "He doesn't know Yu Jie is here? Has Yu Jie not visited him yet?" Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Wei Luman, wanting to see her reaction. At this moment, Wei Luman said, "Oh, Aunt Yu came too. I even had dinner with them the day they arrived."

"Oh, really? Xiao Yu is here too? But why didn't she come to see this old man?" Wei Zulin said rather dejectedly.

"President Yu is very busy these days. I think she might come back to see you after this busy period is over," Yang Letian comforted him.

"Hmm, maybe. Oh, by the way, what are you here for in Shanghai?"

"Oh, it's like this." So Yang Letian told Wei Zulin about the Wuyu Company project and also mentioned the company's board of directors' attitude. Yang Letian thought that Wei Zulin was also a member of the company's board of directors and a major shareholder, so there shouldn't be any problem telling him this.

Although Wei Zulin was no longer managing the business of Julong Company, he was still quite concerned about its development. After listening carefully to Yang Letian's account, he thought for a while, then frowned and said, "Logically speaking, the board of directors' decision is correct. After all, such a large investment is not a trivial matter and must be handled with utmost caution. What I'm worried about now is that old fox Kong Zirong. He's a long-time client of our Julong Group and has brought us considerable profits. Now he's asking us to invest in him, and we've refused him. I'm afraid he won't let this go easily."

“You’re right, sir. The company is already prepared for him to stop cooperating with us. In other words, even if we lose him as a long-time client, our losses won’t be too great,” Yang Letian said.

“I know that. Brother Zixiong should have considered this issue as well. I’m not worried about him not cooperating with us, but rather that he might join forces with other companies to target us,” Wei Zulin said, sounding somewhat worried. Yang

Letian felt that Wei Zulin’s concerns were not unreasonable, but he still felt a little strange, thinking to himself, “Since you care so much about the company’s affairs, why did you step down from the management?” Feeling puzzled, he maintained a calm demeanor and smiled, “Your concerns are indeed valid, sir. But what will happen, will happen. We just need to focus on doing a good job with the company’s business. If he really has any schemes or tricks up his sleeve, we’ll deal with them as they come. We’re not afraid of him.”

“Hehe, you young people are really bold. Okay, then let’s not discuss this anymore. By the way, besides this, is there anything else we need to do?”

"That's all, but it seems President Yu has a few personal matters to attend to, so I won't inquire further." After much consideration, Yang Letian decided not to tell him about Yu Jie's desire to acquire his shares. He figured Yu Jie would eventually talk to Wei Zulin about it, so there was no need to rush to inform him. It was better to gauge Wei Zulin's attitude first. So Yang Letian said, "Grandpa Wei, I see you're quite concerned about the company's affairs. Since you're worried, why don't you go to Linhai to participate in the company's daily management?"

"Hehe, I'm old. I can't manage even if I wanted to," Wei Zulin waved his hand and said.

"You're not old at all," Yang Letian said. "I think our company's Chairman Yuan is about your age. He's been managing the company all along, and managing it very well."

"Hehe, how can I compare to Brother Zixiong?" Wei Zulin laughed. "His physique is much stronger than mine." "

Hehe, Mr. Wei, judging from your tone, you seem to have a good relationship with our chairman."

"Of course! Julong Company was built up by your Chairman Yuan and me. How could our relationship not be good?" Wei Zulin said with considerable pride.

Hearing this, Yang Letian felt much relieved. He thought to himself, "It seems that Wei Zulin and Tingting's father do have a good relationship. Yu Jie's attempt to acquire his shares to deal with Tingting and the others probably can't be accomplished with just one trip to Shanghai." Thinking of this, Yang Letian turned to look at Wei Luman beside him. She was resting her chin on her hands, looking serious, lost in thought. "Hehe, it seems some are happy while others are sad," Yang Letian thought to himself. "But it's a bit strange. Wei Zulin and Yuan Zixiong are such good friends, yet Wei Luman hates Yuan Tingting, wishing she could knock her to the ground and stomp on her. Doesn't Wei Zulin know what's on Wei Luman's mind?"

"Dad, I'm not talking to you anymore, let's go inside and play," Wei Luman suddenly stood up and said. After saying that, she pulled Yang Letian to leave, but Yang Letian quickly said, "Uncle, then we'll go inside first."

"Hehe, you guys go ahead, you don't need to keep this old man company," Wei Zulin said with a smile and waved his hand.

"Your dad doesn't seem to know about the conflict between you and Yuan Tingting. Why don't you tell your dad? If you did, I think he would definitely help you, because I think he loves you quite a bit," Yang Letian asked tentatively.

"Do I need you to remind me? If I could tell you, I would have already. Forget it, there are many things you don't understand, and you wouldn't understand even if I told you," Wei Luman said somewhat impatiently. Seeing that Wei Luman didn't want to talk, Yang Letian wisely kept quiet.

The spaciousness and luxury of the small building were beyond Yang Letian's expectations. It was fully equipped with modern furniture and appliances. The first floor was a lavishly decorated living room with leather sofas, a nanmu coffee table, a large-screen rear-projection TV, and high-fidelity surround sound, giving the entire living room a very modern feel. However, at this moment, the huge living room was empty, making it seem somewhat deserted. Then, Wei Luman said, "Let's go upstairs and visit my room." "

Hehe, to Miss's boudoir? I'd be truly honored," Yang Letian chuckled.

"Stop being so cheeky, are you coming or not?" Wei Luman retorted playfully.

"Go, go, how can you not go? You, lead the way and get to work."

Wei Luman rolled her eyes at him and said, "You rascal." With that, she led Yang Letian upstairs. As they passed a room, Wei Luman said, "This is my sister and brother-in-law's room."

"Oh, really? Then I have to go in and have a look. Hehe!"

"Get lost, the couple is resting inside, what are you going to see?" Wei Luman said, giving Yang Letian a light punch.

"Hehe, I was just kidding. Did you really think I'd go? Do you think I'm that rude?" After saying that, Yang Letian suddenly paused for a moment, tilting his head as if listening to something.

"Are you coming or not? What are you doing standing there sneaking around like that?" Wei Luman walked ahead and turned around, seeing Yang Letian still standing at her sister's door without moving, and couldn't help but scold him.

Yang Letian smiled mysteriously, beckoned to Wei Luman, and whispered, "Come here."

"What are you doing? Sneaking around like that." Although Wei Luman was scolding him, she couldn't suppress her curiosity and walked to Yang Letian's side, saying, "What are you doing?"

Yang Letian smiled mischievously, put two fingers to his lips and shushed him, then whispered, "Listen, what's that sound?"

"What sound?" Wei Luman also focused her breath and listened carefully. Sure enough, she heard a faint woman's moan and a man's panting. The two sounds mixed together and drifted out from the crack in the door, entering their ears, and seemed to get clearer the more they listened.

"Ugh, let's go, or you'll get a sty!" Wei Luman's face burned. She pinched Yang Letian's arm hard, making him quickly follow her away. As they walked, he complained, "I only heard, I didn't see anything, how could I get a sty? It'd be an ear infection, not a sty."

"Stop being so cheeky, I'll tear your stinky mouth apart!" With that, Wei Luman reached out to pinch his mouth, scaring Yang Letian into running away.

Wei Luman's room was much larger than Yang Letian had expected. He had assumed that with their house being so big, Wei Luman's room would be big too, but the reality was quite different. Wei Luman's room was very small, probably only about ten square meters. There was only a bed, a dressing table/desk with a laptop on it, and nothing else. However, it was decorated very warmly. There were many pink things in the room: cherry pink walls, pink curtains, sheets, slippers, and fluffy toys on the bedside table.
